Benefits of technology

Enables efficient retraction and intrusion of anterior teeth without invasive implants, reducing patient discomfort and preventing enamel damage, while effectively closing spaces between anterior and posterior teeth during orthodontic correction.

Problems solved by technology

Misaligned teeth can adversely affect a person's dental aesthetics, functions, and health.
The space closure step is a challenge, calling for an effective mechanism to achieve smooth retraction of the anterior teeth.
However, while using the orthodontic correction device described above, the mini-screws implants 24 are implanted in the palate of the maxilla M. This is an invasive procedure which can cause local inflammation, and the presence of the implants can restrict tongue motion and cause discomfort to the patient during space closure.
In addition, debonding of brackets and the removal of adhesive or resin debris from the enamel surface can cause damage to the tooth enamel.

Abstract

A removable orthodontic correction device includes a first correction unit, a second correction unit, and several elastic members. The first correction unit is configured to be removably worn on the anterior teeth of the maxillary or mandibular dental arch of a patient and has several first connection parts formed thereon. The second correction unit is configured to be removably worn on the posterior teeth of the same maxillary or mandibular dental arch of the patient and has several second connection parts formed thereon. The elastic members couple the first connection parts to the second connection parts. Thus, the elastic force of the elastic members drives the first correction unit to retract toward the second correction unit, to achieve en masse retraction and intrusion of the anterior teeth during space closure in the treatment of dental protrusion.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]The present application claims priority of China Patent Application No. 201610132939.2, filed on Mar. 9, 2016, the entirety of which is incorporated by reference herein.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Field of the Invention[0003]The present application relates to an orthodontic correction technology; and in particular to a removable orthodontic correction device.[0004]Description of the Related Art[0005]Misaligned teeth can adversely affect a person's dental aesthetics, functions, and health. The goal of orthodontic correction is to bring the teeth into proper alignment by using appliances which exert mechanical forces to move the teeth to positions or orientations where the dental functions and aesthetics are improved.[0006]Dental protrusion is a common condition requiring orthodontic treatment. Dentoalveolar protrusion of the maxillary or both the maxillary and mandibular (bimaxillary) anterior teeth results in a convex facial profile....
